"niimas" meaning in Navajo

See niimas in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Verb

IPA: /nìːmɑ̀s/
Etymology: ni- (“round shape”) + -yi- (semelfactive) + -∅- (3rd person subject prefix) + -∅- (classifier) + -mas (semelfactive imperfective stem of root -MÁÁZ, “to roll”). The stem -máás (“globular, spherical, ball-like shape”) is cognate with -bą́ą́z (“hooplike, ringlike shape”), and they have the same origin, which possibly is Proto-Athabaskan *wątsʼ (“roll”) Etymology templates: {{nv-prefix|ni-round|a}} ni- (“round shape”), {{nv-prefix|yi-semel}} -yi- (semelfactive), {{nv-prefix|3s}} -∅- (3rd person subject prefix), {{nv-prefix|∅}} -∅- (classifier), {{nv-prefixes|ni-round|yi-semel|3s|∅}} ni- (“round shape”) + -yi- (semelfactive) + -∅- (3rd person subject prefix) + -∅- (classifier), {{nowrap|<i class="Latn mention" lang="nv">-mas</i>}} -mas, {{nv-link-to-stem|-mas|semelfactive imperfective}} + -mas (semelfactive imperfective stem of, {{nowrap|<i class="Latn mention" lang="nv">-MÁÁZ</i>}} -MÁÁZ, {{nv-link-to-root|-MÁÁZ|roll}} root -MÁÁZ, “to roll”), {{der|nv|ath-pro|*wątsʼ||roll}} Proto-Athabaskan *wątsʼ (“roll”) Head templates: {{head|nv|verb}} niimas Inflection templates: {{nv-conj|impf|||ni|yii|∅|mas}}, {{nv-conj|perf|||ni|si|∅|mas}}, {{nv-conj|fut|||ni|∅|∅|mas}} Forms: no-table-tags [table-tags], niismas [first-person, imperfective, singular], niiʼmas [duoplural, first-person, imperfective], daniiʼmas [first-person, imperfective, plural], niimas [imperfective, second-person, singular], noohmas [duoplural, imperfective, second-person], danoohmas [imperfective, plural, second-person], niimas [duoplural, imperfective, singular, third-person], daniimas [imperfective, plural, third-person], jiniimas [duoplural, fourth-person, imperfective, singular], dazhniimas [fourth-person, imperfective, plural], no-table-tags [table-tags], némas [first-person, perfective, singular], neeʼmas [duoplural, first-person, perfective], daneeʼmas [first-person, perfective, plural], nínímas [perfective, second-person, singular], sinoomas [duoplural, perfective, second-person], dasinoomas [perfective, plural, second-person], neezmas [duoplural, perfective, singular, third-person], daneezmas [perfective, plural, third-person], jineezmas [duoplural, fourth-person, perfective, singular], dazhneezmas [fourth-person, perfective, plural], no-table-tags [table-tags], dínéesmas [first-person, future, singular], díníiʼmas [duoplural, first-person, future], dadíníiʼmas [first-person, future, plural], díníímas [future, second-person, singular], dínóohmas [duoplural, future, second-person], dadínóohmas [future, plural, second-person], dínóomas [duoplural, future, singular, third-person], dadínóomas [future, plural, third-person], dízhnóomas [duoplural, fourth-person, future, singular], dazhdínóomas [fourth-person, future, plural]
